Astro Bot took home the top award at The Game Awards Thursday night, winning the Game of the Year trophy, along with three other awards. The platformer – a playable tribute to Sony’s 30-year history – also took home the best game direction award.
Other Game of the Year nominees were not shut out, though. Indie runaway success Balatro won three awards; Atlus fantasy role-playing game Metaphor: ReFantazio picked up the same number of nods, including an award for Best Narrative. Helldivers 2 and Black Myth: Wukong each took home two statues, and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth won an award for best music and score.
